Irving teaches me the lesson of cheerfulness, Hawthorne shows me the hatefulness of sin, Longfellow gives me the soft, tranquil music of hope. Lowell makes us feel that we must give ourselves to our fellow men. Whittier sings to me of divine Fatherhood and human brotherhood. These are Christian lessons: who inspired them? Who put it into the heart of Martin Luther to nail those theses on the church door of Wittenberg? Who stirred and fired the soul of Savonarola? Who thrilled and electrified the soul of John Wesley? Jesus Christ is back of these all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was a very inferior farmer when he first begun . . . and he is now fast rising from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1969]]></link><description><![CDATA[He was a very inferior farmer when he first begun . . . and he is now fast rising from affluence to poverty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1969</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No more the mounting larks, while Daphne sings, Shall, list'ning, in mid-air suspend their wings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24100]]></link><description><![CDATA[No more the mounting larks, while Daphne sings, Shall, list'ning, in mid-air suspend their wings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43476]]></link><description><![CDATA[After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He said: that it was a Great delusion to think that the times of prayer ought to differ from other ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7740]]></link><description><![CDATA[He said: that it was a Great delusion to think that the times of prayer ought to differ from other times; that we are as strictly obliged to adhere to God by action in the time of action, as by prayer in its season.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In short, he and the Scotch have no way of redeeming the credit of their understandings, but by avowing that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54898]]></link><description><![CDATA[In short, he and the Scotch have no way of redeeming the credit of their understandings, but by avowing that they have been consummate villains.
